I had a hair appointment this evening and I finally took took the plunge..... I got bangs. Bettie Paige bangs. It has taken a while to get up the courage to do it, but I finally did.  I also had about 4 inches taken off the length, so now it's about to my shoulders.  It's so weird! I haven't had bangs since my hair was much shorter. It's been about 5 years!  I'm not sure what I think about it yet.  I'm just hoping that I won't have to color my roots as often! When my bangs were long, I swept them to the side with a barrette, Lauren Bacall- style, so the roots showed right away. Now that I have bangs, I'm hoping it will take a little longer. :-) 

I heard from my mom tonight. They have two new kittens!  One boy and one girl. The girl doesn't have a name yet, but the boy is Walter. I love it! I'm glad they rescued them too.  

All in all, a good day.
